In
all humility and candidness, the
Tri-People of Mindanao (Muslim, Animist
Lumad and Christian) have taken today
the boldest step yet to call on
President Barack Hussein Obama of the
United States of America (USA). The
colonized victims wish him to answer the
years-long lingering puzzlement gripping
the hearts and minds of the oppressed
Bangsamoro people of Mindanao.

Why is
the U.S. government patronizing
injustice and “war of genocide” in the
Filipino-colonized Bangsamoro homeland
of Mindanao, Sulu and Palawan (MINSUPALA)?

Why is
today the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize
recipient American President so
insensitive and silent to help bring
peace to Mindanao under Philippine
colonialism caused directly in the past
by the U.S. government?

The similitude in history of MNLF
Chairman Prof. Nur Misuari with the
known legendary revolutionary leaders, like
Nelson Mandela of South Africa and Fidel Castro
of Cuba, is surely the substantial and moral
element of freedom struggle. While in detention
under the oppressive military forces of colonial
and neo-colonial government, they can dare
express the sentiments of the colonized. Unfazed
and principled revolutionaries to the core, not
political collaborators who can easily abandon
freedom struggle faced with torture and the
“spoils of power” offered by colonizers.

“…The number one industry in this whole
country is corruption.”

“War is terrible. It’s a scourge to
humanity. It’s like fire, it eats up
everything. We fought the Spaniards for
377 years, then the British and the
Dutch, the Americans and the Japanese,
and then the Filipinos. But who brought
the war to Mindanao? Not us.”

The
beginning of the militant and progressive Algerian
Revolution on the First of November 1954 under the Front de
Liberation Nationale (FLN) or National Liberation Front
(Algeria) spearheaded by Brother Ahmed Ben
Bella...

“There has to be a Bangsamoro nation,” said
Davao City Mayor Rodrigo Duterte. He is
batting strongly for a federal government
set-up for the war-wracked and
corrupt-ridden Philippines in order to solve
the Filipino-Moro war in Mindanao. Knowing
fully well that MNLF Chairman Nur Misuari
has a key role in ensuring peace in war-torn
Mindanao, the Davao City mayor has advised
the Aquino government not to ignore the
capability of the MNLF chairman in helping
forge peace in Mindanao.

It was a sad day
for the global Muslims and surely an affront for
democracy-conscious Canada when a true believer,
Yusuf Ledesma, a “father, husband, brother, Muslim,
economist and activist” informed the whole of
humanity in Twitter on September 12, 2014 with the
following tweets:

“Top Muslim
government official confirmed that Mayor Beng
Climaco cancelled Dr. Bilal Philips peace talk and
asked he be secured by DOJ.”

“The talk was
meant to be a lecture to end misconceptions about
Islam and organized by professionals in Zamboanga
including lawyers, etc.”

In response to
the sad tweets of Brother Yusuf Ledesma (may his
kind multiply), mnlfnet.com repeatedly
tweeted in Twitter,...

This was in
reaction to the oppressive action of Philippine
colonialism under President Benigno S. Aquino III to
arrest Chairman Nur Misuari of the Moro National
Liberation Front (MNLF). The MNLF Christian leader
of Filipino-colonized Mindanao also said that any
attempt of the Philippine military forces to arrest
Chairman Misuari could be considered “act of war”
after his declaration of independence for the
Bangsamoro Republik now pending before the United
Nations (UN). He further explained that the MNLF
petition for complete independence and national
self-determination of the Muslim and Animist Lumad
natives as well as conscious Christians of Mindanao
was already submitted to the UN Committee on
Decolonization.(READ

This
month of August 2014 has registered
another milestone event for the MNLF-launched
freedom struggle of the Muslim and
Animist Lumad natives as well as
conscious Christians of the Bangsamoro
homeland of Mindanao, Sulu and Palawan (MINSUPALA).

The
proclamation of the independence of the
United Federated States of Bangsamoro
Republik (UFSBR) by the MNLF leadership
in Zamboanga City simultaneously in
major MNLF camps in Mindanao on August
12, 2013 with Davao City as capital
center has a bright cause for
celebrating its first anniversary.

The injustice committed
by the Philippine government against the colonized Muslim
and Animist Lumad natives of Mindanao for decades now has to
bother surely the conscience and humanity of the community
of nations under the reform-and-peace-conscious United
Nations (UN).

“When you don’t stand up
against injustice, you participate in it,” said Ben Keller. Does
this truism speak of the indifference and insensitivity of the
United Nations to help solve the nagging Filipino-Moro war in
Mindanao imposed by Philippine colonialism?

On one hand, is it possible
for the United Nations to see the light to be guided by the
words of wisdom of Bishop Desmond Tutu? “If you are neutral in
situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the
oppressor.”

"O believers, fight in the path of

mind that Allah hears and knows
everything." (2:22)

In
keeping with this Qur'anic injunction,
the indigenous Muslims with the support
of the Animist Lumad natives and the
conscious Christians of Mindanao have to
continue waging the freedom struggle
against the oppressive Filipino
colonizers of Luzon.

It is recalled that the continuing
4-decade Filipino-Moro war in Mindanao
was designed by the Philippine
Commonwealth regime of President Manuel
L. Quezon, who proudly declared the
colonization and occupation of the
Bangsamoro homeland of Mindanao, Sulu
and Palawan (MINSUPALA) with the
enactment of the draconian law National
Assembly Legislative Act No. 4197
otherwise known as the Quirino-Recto
Colonization Act.

1) Is it true that the MNLF set the houses
on fire and that they barred the firemen
from putting out the fire because of MNLF
snipers? I heard claims on the contrary.

2) Is it true that the MNLF has high-powered
firearms that include 90 RR? Mar says these,
aside from mortars, were among those
recovered by military troops during clearing
ops. May financial backers daw ang MNLF that
provided the logistics to wage the uprising?

The Filipino-Moro war raging now in Zamboanga
City between the colonial Philippine occupation
soldiers and the Bangsamoro freedom fighters of

On July 4,
1946, colonial America State
terrorism was passed on to
power-hungry Filipino colonizers to
unleash upon the Mindanao and
Cordillera natives. The dreadful
Philippine State terrorism was
terribly felt by the Muslim and
Lumad Animist natives of Mindanao as
well as the Igorots of the
Cordillera ('Mountain Province').
This was the formal establishment
of America-created 'Republic of the
Philippines' that involved the
highly immoral annexation of
Mindanao, Sulu and Palawan (MINSUPALA)
and the Cordillera Region.

The injustice most foul committed by
both Philippine and Malaysian colonialism in land-grabbing
the Bangsamoro homeland of Mindanao, Sulu and Palawan (MINSUPALA
cannot be forever hidden to a mere footnote in history.
Certainly, an immoral and criminal activity of this
magnitude has to surface to haunt and scare the perpetrators
that a grievous injustice has to be rectified. Otherwise, it
will always end humiliating the colonizers even though using
the majesty of law in legitimizing the crime against an
oppressed humanity.

This is the case today of what
is happening in Lahad Datu, Sabah (North Borneo
originally) that the Tausugs ("Orang Suluk" in
Malaysian Constitution) of Sulu archipelago have
always considered an integral part of the Sultanate

Why is
the Christian Philippine government imposing the
sinister policy of Filipinization as a subterfuge
for Christianization over the colonized Muslim and
Animist native inhabitants of the Bangsamoro
homeland of Mindanao, Sulu and Palawan (MINSUPALA)?

Is the
threat of Filipinization or Christianization under
Philippine colonialism really endangering the mental
and physical well-being of the Muslim and Indigenous
peoples of Mindanao?

In
recalling the colonial annexation of the historical
independent Moro Nation (Bangsamoro), from the
beginning since the time President Manuel L. Quezon
of the Philippine Commonwealth in 1935 declared the
'colonization' and 'occupation' of the Bangsamoro
homeland of Mindanao, Sulu and Palawan (MINSUPALA),
it also proclaimed ominously the forthcoming bloody
Filipino-Moro war in the colonized territory.
Clearly, it was pure and simple land-grabbing
strategy.

Motivated by political and economic
greed to presumably 'legalize' the
colonial policy, the early Filipino
politicians under the American-installed
Commonwealth government contrived to
enact a draconian 'law' in the National
Assembly codified as 'Legislative Act
No. 4197' otherwise known as 'Quirino-Recto
Colonization Act'.

Given the current dispute between
Philippines and China over actual
ownership of the islands in South China
Sea and the unending Philippines-Bangsamoro
war in Filipino-occupied, there are two
fundamental questions that need crystal
clarification, to wit:

Firstly, can Philippines respect the
historical and human rights of the
colonized Bangsamoro people and the
peace-loving Chinese people?

Secondly, can the Luzon-based Filipino
colonizers cease to perpetrate injustice
against the historically-sovereign Moro
Nation (Bangsamoro) and now emerging
super power China?

The conception
from the beginning of "Filipinas" (Philippines) as the King
Philip II-related "cursed nation" into the American-inspired
"fabricated Philippine State" in 1946 and presently into a
showcase window of "state violence" has ominously made the
Philippines a country of perils varied and war-mongers
attracting divine wrath. Thus, the proudly proclaimed
"Catholic nation in Asia" has always experienced the pangs
of war and other unwarranted social crisis.(READ

the ugly Marcosian 'New Society' (Bagong Lipunan) carnage
outlook.

Under the political cliche 'Straight Pathway' (Matuwid na

'ambassadors of peace' as new commercial components to end
presumably the longest war in Southeast Asia second only to

Since
the formal imposition of Philippine colonialism in

pangs of genocidal war executed by the colonial
Filipino military occupation forces all out to

On
July 4, 1946, Philippine colonialism reared
its ugly head in the Bangsamoro homeland of

committed two monumental crimes against
humanity, involving the massive massacring
of the aboriginal Indians and deceptively
land-grabbing their ancestral homeland and
also the inhumane enslaving of the 'African
Americans' in American soil for myriad of
years.

What is the possibility of Philippine
colonialism going to war with powerful China while still
waging a genocidal war against the colonized Bangsamoro
people of Mindanao?

Can Philippines afford to battle with both
the colonized people of Mindanao and the
emerging global superpower China whose
historical rights, respectively, on Sulu Sea
and South China Sea are being usurped and
challenged by a "corrupt" and "fabricated

(MILF). But is the colonial design workable enough to
bring 'just and lasting' peace to war-torn Mindanao?

WHY THE DELAY TO IMPLEMENT THE GRP-OIC-MNLF PEACE
AGREEMENTS?

Up to date, the
Philippine government has engaged 38 years the MNLF in peace
talks, including signing three (3) peace agreements,
specifically the 1976 Tripoli Peace Agreement, 1987 Jeddah
Peace Accord and the 1996 Jakarta Peace Agreement. (READ

It is now written in global
history that the original vision of the founding leaders of
the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) is to regain the
complete freedom of the oppressed Bangsamoro people of
Mindanao from Philippine colonialism through defensive armed
struggle. Since the first dawn of the conception of the Moro
National Liberation Front in the late 1960s as triggered and
inspired by the heinous Jabidah Massacre of March 18, 1968,
the founding MNLF Chairman Prof. Nur Misuari and the first
90 batch Moro trainees consequently always repeatedly
proclaimed their solemn pledge right in the huge Matalam
rock inside their training camp. In unison, they always
pledged passionately and loudly the liberating words of
martyrdom: "In the name of Allah, in the name of our
oppressed people and in the name of our homeland! Victory or
to the Graveyard!

Indeed, the
intensity of the cold-blooded massacre in
Corigidor Island of around sixty eight (68)
recruited Muslim trainees from Sulu and
Tawi-Tawi by the Armed Forces of the
Philippines (AFP) officers as sanctioned by
the Marcos regime alarmed and radicalized
the Bangsamoro people. This was compounded
by the succeeding genocidal extermination
depredations against the Muslims by the AFP
and its armed para-military troops in other
areas in mainland Mindanao, particularly in
Cotabato, Lanao, Zamboanga and Bukidnon,
resulting in massive dislocation and wanton
land-grabbing of the lands of the Muslims by
the Christian settlers supported by the
Manila government.(READ

THE 3 MOST CORRUPT PHILIPPINE PRESIDENTS -
According to a survey by Pulse Asia,
Inc. - October, 2007

Since day one the Filipino colonizers, like Manuel L.
Quezon and gang, learned the art of plundering and
land-grabbing trade from the imperialist American
warlords in 1935, corruption has become a way of life
for the government officials in the Philippines. The
early Filipino politicians up to the present crop have
had educated themselves to believe that corruption pays,
although a moral crime. Thus, nowhere in the world today
can you mention the Filipino nation without relating it
to graft and corruption. (READ

"The time has come when we should systematically
proceed and bring about the colonization and economic
development of Mindanao. A vast and rich territory with its
untapped natural resources is a temptation of enterprising
nations that are looking for their excess population...if,
therefore, we are resolved to conserve Mindanao for
ourselves and posterity, we must bend all our efforts
to occupy and develop it and guard it against avarice and
greed. Its colonization and development will mean increased
national wealth and greater national security...their
provinces and Luzon and Visayas that are already
populated..." (Peter G. Gowing, 1979)(READ

DECLARATION OF PHILIPPINE COLONIALISM OVER
BANGSAMORO HOMELAND IN THE FIRST NATIONAL ASSEMBLY by
President Manuel L. Quezon of the Philippine
Commonwealth regime in
June 16, 1935.

BMNews, Zamboanga City- "It is really strange that
the civilian Philippine government now is beholden to
its military branch," said Prof. Daim Abadi, head of the
Bangsamoro Strategic Research Center (BSRC). "It is like
the Philippines and today's civilian leaders have not
taken off from the ugly vestiges of Martial Law declared
by President/Dictator Ferdinand E. Marcos in 1972 that
ultimately ended when he was bolted out from power in
1996," he further explained.

Does this mean that the newly-created Armed Forces
of 'Pabaon' (AFP) officials can declare an "All-Out War"
anytime of the day even under a popularly-elected
Philippine president? This is apparently the case now
when suddenly All-Out War break loose in Sulu, Basilan
and Zamboanga Sibugay orchestrated by some AFP officials
to prove that they're in control of the situation and
need money fast to sustain any declared war. Also, any
time too, they can always claim and declare "victory."(READ

BMnews, Jolo, Sulu- Chairman Hj. Khaid Adjibon of
the Lupah Sug State Revolutionary Committee (LSSRC) of
the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) has recently
proclaimed the launching of an anti-kidnapping campaign
against the lawless elements in Lupah Sug (Sulu),
including trouble-making groups patronized by the
colonial Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP)
occupation forces in Sulu to create chaos and terrorize
the local populace, particularly the rural civilian
residents.

"The LSSRC-MNLF will not tolerate anymore any unIslamic
activities committed by trouble-makers making Lupah Sug
a haven of kidnappers. Kidnapping is haraam in Islam and
the MNLF is going to conduct a relentless campaign to
eradicate this anti-Islamic activity that has stained
the integrity of the Muslims in Sulu," said Chairman
Adjibon Khaid.(READ

Now comes the
Bangsamoro Question! After the Palestine problem, the
most controversial issue usually discussed in the annual
OIC Islamic Foreign Ministers Conference (ICFM) meetings
is the Filipino-Moro war in Mindanao that until now is
wanting comprehensive solution. Despite the forging of
the 1976 Tripoli Peace Agreement, the 1987 Jeddah Accord
and the 1996 Jakarta Peace Agreement concurred with the
active participation of the OIC, the Bangsamoro Question
remains still a thorny issue in the OIC.
Unresolved. Chaotic. Threatening. Still courting
humanitarian disaster for the colonized Bangsamoro
people under Filipino occupation since the Philippine
Commonwealth regime in 1935.(READ

has crippled the growth and development not only of
war-ravaged Mindanao, but as well the whole

The tragic demise
of the late Senator Benigno 'Ninoy' Aquino, Jr., thanks
and no thanks to the dreadful Marcos Dictatorship, was
shared by both the Filipino and Bangsamoro masses as a
great loss. While the notorious President/Dictator
Ferdinand Marcos figured in the brutal suppression of
the fundamental human rights of the battered Filipinos
and the genocidal extermination of the Muslims of the
Bangsamoro homeland of Mindanao, Sulu and Palawan
(MINSUPALA), Senator Benigno Aquino, Jr. symbolized a
democratic icon to the Filipino society. He also batted
for the self-determination of the oppressed and
colonized Bangsamoro people based on justice, peace and
freedom. (READ
